To help battle my Hershey’s Cookies & Cream bar addiction, I thought I would buy three XL sized bars and put them in cookies. I’ll let you know if I end up curbing the poor eating habit, but in the meantime, check out the masterpieces. Well, almost.
I trolled Google with something along the lines of “Hershey’s cookies cream recipe” and found several overly decadent (college code for involved)
brownies,
truffles, and other things…
ugh effort. Then I came across “double cookies and cream kiss cookie bars”. Sounds more complicated than it is; I think the double referred to the inclusion of Oreos in the original recipe. And who has time for unwrapping kisses? The rest of the recipe was more or less two layers of chocolate chip cookie dough sandwiching “a” layer of the best American chocolate to have ever existed. Or whatever you call it. They turned out to be great cookie bars…and as you can see from the above image, if you’re really trying, you can kinda perceive-ish some white chocolate and/or oreo crumb. This is particularly annoying because I only used one and a half bars. And if I make them again, I’ll have to buy more. That’s okay; they’re just that much less artery-clogging.
